Day 11: Road to Africa
(Mystery) Marathon

This morning's run was a group event with BMR & BGR. After this week's workouts, I gave in to the bridge and added a few walks. Heart rate kept climbing. #running #bridge #Runthe313 #CharlesStreet12

Day 9: Road to Africa
(Mystery) Marathon

Friday morning's run felt better than yesterdays. Still hot and humid, but it's August. Followed with cool down walk. Gym in afternoon for strength training (arms/legs/crunches). Next week strength trg only twice/week. #running #Runthe313 #CharlesStreet12

Day 7: Road to Africa
(Mystery) Marathon

The heat and humidity are back and it zapped me this morning. Goal was to run to and tackle the steep NE Michigan Avenue bridge and the stairs at the Basilica of the National Shrine. More pain tomorrow 😂 #Worldwidewil #running #Runthe313 #CharlesStreet12

Day 4: Road to Africa (Mystery) Marathon

Friday morning run was a speed struggle. Managed to engage fartleks into last two miles. Walked an additional cool down mile. More miles tomorrow 🏃🏾 #running #Runthe313 #CharlesStreet12

Day 2: Road to Africa (Mystery) Marathon

Early morning run in cooler temps with slight humidity creeping in. Didn't record the cool down walk, but got just over a quarter mile done (time constraint).

PS you will find out the race/country when I land. No clues 👋🏾 #running #Runthe313 #CharlesStreet12

Sad/jealous watching #charlesStreet12 runners zoom by my window...was supposed to be running it but I'm injured. :(
